Seconded! Been using the suite for years and it rocks. It's also multi-OS compatible, which is super handy.

I only ever played the first one! My dad picked up the CD somewhere while working on a busted computer, I think? I replayed it like 12 times because I thought it was so interesting as a kid.

My spouse: I was promised flying cars, and I don't even get a conversation pit!

They're not technically a non-profit, but there is a co-op doing exactly this named, very creatively, The Drivers Cooperative. They're only in Colorado and New York (and I think specifically NYC) right now, but it's exciting to see that happening.

I was actively taught in high school that "unions were nice, but not necessary any more, they get in the way of all our very cool free trade!"

Obviously, my thinking on that has changed a whole lot, but both my partner and I got fed that kind of rhetoric straight out of text books.

The wiki just says they're married. I know it's not "official", but it's official in my heart.

To the Moon was great. It's made with RPG Maker and it shows, but it hits hard.

I have an irrational fondness for it. The stat leveling mechanic is real double-edged sword, though.

Unless we're talking about 2/4 (with Cecil as the main character), in which case that one's just an absolute banger, no notes.

Oh, definitely. It's also worth noting that he definitely wasn't a geologist, despite having an interest in it. I was mostly just mentioning it because there were theories trying to explain the similarities across landmasses before plate tectonics. We may not always be right about why, but we're really good at noticing stuff like that (even when it doesn't mean anything).

Darwin believed one of the more popular explanations of his time: expanding Earth theory. Basically, the planet was like an expanding dough ball. It decently explained why things looked like they fit together. Darwin even went out to Patagonia to investigate some cliffs, and basically "confirmed" the theory.

I did some reverse image searching and found this: https://www.comics.org/issue/222265/

I also found it for sale in eBay, so I'm bumping it up to 95%.
